Transverse sections of cylindrical scalp biopsy
specimens can provide excellent samples for histologic, quantitative
morphometric analyses of the follicles and hair. This study describes
and illustrates the morphologic details of the normal transverse
anatomy of follicular structures, including the various phases
of the normal hair cycle.
